As far as I could see, guys, some of you are pessimistic about finding the only one from another country, let it be Russia, Ukrain or anything else... I can tell one thing, if you are really looking for someone special and want it very much, you'll succeed for sure some day.
I also was very unsure I could meet a man of my dreams from the other country, but I was very lucky. When I first got internet 1,5 years ago it became for me a real window to the world. I first logged in chats and found it exciting to talk with people from other countries and cultures. It was first of all a very good practise for my English (as I was a student at the faculty of foreign languages)and it was also very interesting to get to know new people, to learn about their culture and even their fates. It also attracted me because one of my best dreams was and is travelling.
I talked to a lot of people from all parts of the world. But once I met a man in a chat from Europe. From the first talk he seemed very intelligent and attracted me as a person. In our first chat he said that he thinks I'm special. I was a bit sceptic then :"How can he know I'm special from 5 minutes of talk"? But finally he was right, I became special to him and he became very precious to me. We started as friends. We wrote very long letters to each other almost every day, sometimes several a day, telling about our daily lifes, about things that happened during a day, stories fom past abot family and friends. we also chatted every day on yahoo and couldnt stop till it was deep night at my place. Our communication was so natural and brought a lot of joy to both of us. He called me "sunshine" later and told that I bring light in his daily life, the same he was for me.
As I said we were friends first and I invited him to visit me in summer. He was very glad and accapted the invitaion. we both had profiles on the internet date sites, and both had it for fun. We liked new things and that time tried to explore this one. He had a correspondance with a woman from Ukrain, I got letters from an Australian guy. If honestly I envied that woman a bit, because he already became a big part of my life and I was afraid to lose him.
One day we had a very frank talk and turned out that we liked each other very much and wanted to be more then friends. It was February and he became my first Valentine. Though he was far away and I've never seen him in my life before it was an exciting feeling, to know that someone at the other ebnd of the continent is thinking about you. My life started to change, from being a very down to earth girl I started to become very romantic. I could read his letters for several times a day, thinking over and enjong every word.
Summer came... He came to me by plane and I had to meet him in the airport at the other city, where I went by car with dad. To tell you the truth I felt very nervous, I was trying to find words which I'll tell when he comes, but most of all I was worried that he'll not like me or visa versa. I was standing near the exit door of the airport, looking for him in crouds of people, trying to recognize him by face which I saw only on a picture. At some moment I thought he didn't come, but at last he appeard. we both felt a bit clumsy and very nervous. But it was not for long. When we came back by car to my city we talked a lot, couldnt take off curious eyes from each other and both during a very short period of time knew that we were the same people who talked over the internet, that we still enjoy talking to each other and we felt as if we knew each other for all our lives.
We had a wonderful romantic vacation here, we found each other. Then he left, it was I think the saddest moment in my life - to part with him. I had to wait 8 monthstill I'll go tohim and 6 are already passed thanks God. OUr love didnt become less only much strongr I think. This waiting gave both of us a chance to realize how precious it is to be togather, how important every moment spent with the one you love. They say that love is like a fire, when you have to live apart some time it can stop burning or it can start burn only stronger. I'm very happy that in our case it is the second variant.
I think it doesnt matter from where your girl will be, from another country or it will be a girl who lives in the neighbouring appartment, the most important thing is to find a person who will share your thoughts, who will understand and give love back.
I wish luck to all of you!
10/10 for the convincing story though! (Lets face it, how many women are going to come to a site which is for looking at women? - AND then start writing on the forum?)
I'm sorry if honestly I didnt know that women can't write on mens forum! Whats so bad that I wrote it? Just wanted to share my thoughts. You are not obliged to read it Ms Chipscher if you dont want. Arent you too much suspicious about everything? You find false things to be right and true thinngs seem fishy to you. Relax guys. I wasnt going to influense on you, neither asked for anything. So what fishy did you find here?
I understood you to say that Valentine's Day is not a common custom in Russia. But how extensive is knowledge of the custom? Will my lady be completely surprised?
I thought your story was really terrific. It seems very genuine and so do you. Thanks for sharing your experiences and I hope that everything continues to work out well for you.
KR, Valentine day is very common in Russia right now. everybody knows it and celelebrates. Then, March 8- International Women's day - is the biggest day for women in former USSR. so plan two more presents:)
but OF COURSE you may post here, please do in fact! Why not - because you're a woman??? Please don't get offended by some jerks here leaving laughable comments, in fact you should be the one glossing over them.
So you've got two more months of waiting ahead of you - oh well, that's nothing compared to what's behind you already then. Wish you well, and feel absolutely free to post here whatever you like - after all, plenty do already without them having anything to say, and in fact THAT is getting boring.
Just so you know - Your contribution makes for a refreshing chance!
this site is NOT exclusively for men looking for women - ever given it a thought that it might be a Forum for those interested in a possible relationship with someone abroad?
You should read other forums as well, there are foreign women married to Russian Male's also, yes, via the Net, did you know that?
If you want Forums to narrowly focus on only splinter-groups of the entire whole then look for those, I'm sure they'll exist. Goodluck in them, boring to the bone I'm sure.
Regarding your 'fishy' comment I think your own qualify, especially lately - are you too stupid to recognize a female writing? Apparently so, and then there's absolutely no hope left for you when it comes to a live meeting.
Oh, and a small detail - did you read the subject of this thread? Rather clear if you ask me. Then, if you disagree or are skeptical, why not just skip it?
Thanks all, especially Thunderdome;) Just there are times when you want to share everything u have in your heart. And I think somebody can find it usefull. Earlier I read a lot of successful stories and it encouraged me. Of course we never know what we'll have in future. But better to hope for the best. :) Yeap now only 2 months of waiting I hope if all documents will be done poparly and visa will be approved.
Look for ladies and be a bit careful;), there are a lot of ladies who cheat, a lot who plays games, a lot who just need flirting and are not going abroad. Be a bit psychologists and try to listen to your heart and mind.
of course there's loadsa women who play - same for the men I suppose.
However, scammers are fun, especially when they prove more clever than the standard "Honey I love U" type's.
The problem for them is they have to be utterly consistent, and THAT is very difficult. One sense correspondence with more than just eyes, and also by phone one can learn lots. You know what I mean, and you're right to 'listen' to your inner voice.
Mind you, a good telltale but not 100% accurate I've found out, made a blunder myself also ;-))
If I may ask, and if you're willing to tell, what country in Europe are you going to? Just curious, I'm from there but don't live there anymore.
Keep well.
Welcome. Thank you for adding your voice to this group. I will be reading your posts with great interest. Best wishes for your present and future happiness!
